Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
Invisible Touch was by far Genesis's most commercially successful album to date, going six times platinum, and signalled the consolidation of Phil Collins's hold over the band's now slickly-modernised, though still potent, sound. The singles were even more successful than the album itself, with all five of them reaching the top five in the US--the first time that any band had achieved this. Stand-out tracks include "Tonight Tonight Tonight", "Land of Confusion" and "Anything She Does", with their intricate jungle rhythms and overflowing energy. Throughout, in fact, Collins's drumming is very inventive and energetic. Low points include the ballads "In Too Deep" and "Throwing It All Away", both examples of Collins dominating centre stage without using the talents of the other band members effectively. "Domino", a Tony Banks number, is the nearest material to old-style Genesis in structure, but incongruously features the most modern synthesised instrumentation and metronomic rhythms on the album, as if embarrassed by associations with the past. "The Brazilian", though, hearkens back to an old Genesis tradition by closing the album with an instrumental. --James Swift

5.0 out of 5 stars The album in which Genesis fused artistic brilliance with huge commercial success, 12 Jan 2007
By Greshon (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Invisible Touch (Audio CD)
I know it's fashionable not to like Genesis these days, but I refuse to bite my lip and say they are rubbish. They can be, and have been, but not here.

I think this album has a lot in common with Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms. They were both released at almost the same time, 1986 and 1985 respectively. Both bands had previously made albums which were critically accalimed - A Trick of the Tail (1976) for Genesis and Making Movies (1980) for Dire Straits, and both bands had achieved moderate commercial success too. However, these two albums marked the point at which both bands managed to fuse artistic brilliance with massive commercial success.

The title track, with its killer melody, is the perfect single. Tonight, Tonight, Tonight, with it's contemplative expansiveness is a philosophical and meditative masterpiece. In Too Deep is one of the 80s' most touching love songs. Throwing It All Away is a vicious and angry inditement to all the women that ever broke your heart. And those are just some of the highlights.

5.0 out of 5 stars Class act, 5 Jun 2007
This review is from: Invisible Touch (Audio CD)
This is a truly superb CD. One of the classics of the 1980s with some great fast paced tunes and some slower melodies as well. The second part of Domino is one of my favourite songs of all time and worth the price alone.
The title track is obviously pretty well known by most while Anything She Does is another superb track. Go for it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Invisible Touch (...yeh), 8 Mar 2007
This review is from: Invisible Touch (Audio CD)
I really like this album, it has to be my favourite of all time by anyone. When I was about five my dad taped this album for me off his CD and I listened to it (especially the title track) a lot. All 8 tracks on it are good to listen to, with one exception, I'm not too keen on In Too Deep, although I don't hate it, but I never used to like it very much when I was younger - too slow for my tastes, although now I appreciate it to some extent, though it's still not as good as the rest of the album.
